Merry Hissmas!

Okay, so a lot of you know, I have snakes! =O I know, weird right? Well, we did a snake-mass this year. We also had a snakesgiving. lol
We're as obsessed with snakes as we are with bassets!

So, here's something silly. First, Bowser likes to watch the big snake. He will go over there and lie down and watch him, if he's moving around his cage. Sometimes he just walks by, takes a sniff, and keeps going.

Lastly...our "Snakesmas" tree, and ornaments we've been making! You can see the Bowser one on there too if you look for it

Just something silly from Bowser's mama! (He always says i'm silly

I love it (and I am not a snake person)! So Bowser's resigned himself to a life filled with landfish...good boy

Merry Christmas to you and your brood (including your husband, lol)...and Merry Christmas to sweet Bowsah.

Are they real snakes in baubles???I must admit we only have adders in the UK and i havent yet seen anything but a dead snake over here but they do freak me out lol! Happy Christmas but 1 question...what do you give a snake for Christmas???

Wow!! Gotta admit that I'm not a snake lover either....have a group of them that take up residence in my garage every summer...they eat the bugs so I just step over them...after screaming. Merry Christmas to you all....

Those are real snakes in those Xmas ornaments! hehe. THe one actually seemed to like it a lot in there. They were the only ones small enough to fit, or you can bet i would have stuffed them all in for a pic...muwahaha, i'm a mean mama though, i even dress up my basset!

You know i was actually raised to fear snakes...because of all the rattlesnakes that were where i grew up. I don't think i ever thought about them either way though, until last year, and my husband wanted a ball python.
After we got one...i was hooked. They have the most SWEET persoalities. don't get me wrong...there are some that mean, and some that look mean, but are nice, and some that are venomous, which i won't have because i AM afraid i'd get bit....but ball pythons, hognose, and boas are the sweetest snakes.

No really! Think about watching a SOCK PUPPET lap water like a dog. That is what my snakes are like *lol* ball pythons would rather curl up in a ball than be mean in ANYway, if they are upset, and the initial snake we got is curious, sweet, and likes to have her head scratched....she turns her head to the side you are rubbing.
Now, that is cute!

SO, i like snakes...but i guess you could also say i like snakes that don't "act like" snakes *lol*

There are only two kinds of animals in the world i don't like..ANTS...and Monkeys/apes. *lol*

I am not much on pet snakes but I love those ornaments. The tree is nice too. My best friend is an amatuer herpatogist (sp?). He had a lot of snake of both types but he traded them in for children. I had rattlesnake. not bad fried.

Love it! We don't have any snakes at our house but we do have a guinea pig. Our other two dogs want to eat the GP, but the Basset is very blase about it.

You have some beautiful snakes and I love the ornaments. I have a pastel ball python and he is so gentle I can hand him off to anyone and he is not phased in the slightest

henry'smum · 12-27-2011, 03:06 PM
